Finally, the anti-theft electronic door opened, and Brucille walked in. He passed through a huge yard, where synthetic mountains stood firmly, and fishes swam around in the pond.
A slim-looking woman stood at the entrance in her nightgown. She glared at Brucille irritatingly.
Brucille walked up the stairs steadily, and said with a smile as he approached the woman, “Stop looking. The moon isn’t round tonight. Besides, Maxwell is currently lying in his wife’s arms, he won’t know how alluring you are right now.”
Elaine picked up a long scarf from the sofa, wrapped it around her upper body, and sat back down on the sofa. Even without makeup on, her face was still undeniably pretty.
“Go on, what about Maxwell?” she asked.
“I received information that Maxwell is about to go bankrupt soon, and I found out along the way that he has a little mistress. I’m here to help you.” Brucille replied.
Elaine snorted, “If you don’t have anything important to say, you can leave my house now.”
“I do have something important to say. Have you ever thought about how Maxwell would be able to pay for your high expenses if he went bankrupt and his family was torn apart?” Brucille asked.
The house was filled with expensive furniture and decorative items; they must’ve costed millions of yuan. This woman resembled a rich wife more so than a mistress.
Brucille put several important documents on the table, as well as a few photos.
Elaine’s expression changed slightly when she saw these. Her face darkened immediately when she saw the photo with her in it.
“You’re a b*stard!” she said angrily.
That one sentence reflected her current mood.
Brucille rebutted jokingly, “Maxwell comes to your place every few days. You’re the one with a married man around you, so who’s the b*stard here?”
Elaine was rendered speechless by Brucille’s words because she couldn’t deny it. She was indeed Maxwell’s lover, and that photo was enough to prove it.
Since the affair was so obviously irrefutable, Elaine defeatedly asked, “Fine, what do you want from me?”
“As I had mentioned, Maxwell will go bankrupt within a week. Do me a favor, and I’ll get you 20 million yuan from Maxwell as compensation which should be enough for you to spend freely for the rest of your life.” Brucilled offered.
“Why should I believe you? And you should know very well that if I stayed with Maxwell, I can probably get away with more than 20 million yuan.” Elaine said.
Of course Elaine wouldn’t want to give up on her money tree. Brucille pointed at the documents on the glass table and asked, “If these documents were shown to the public, do you think that he would still have 20 million to give you?”
Brucille guessed that Elaine was a gold digger. It mattered little who she dated, as long as the money they gave her was sufficient for her preferred lifestyle.
Elaine was completely defeated in that round of negotiation. She lit a long and thin cigarette, exhaled two thick puffs of smoke, and then said, “Alright, what exactly do you want me to do?”
“It’s simple. Maxwell has used a lot of the money he got from his investors on you. I just need evidence about this to make the investors lose their trust in him. In return, I will pay you 20 million yuan.” he said.
Looking at all the appalling information on the table, she knew that once they were revealed to the public, the Sky Tech Group would instantly be thrown into the eye of a storm. Not only will it be impossible for the company to be listed on the market, there was a high risk that Maxwell would lose his position as Chairman as well.
She took out her mobile phone. There were many records of the monetary transactions between the both of them, and photos of them gambling together in Europe. They were quite literally treating money as if it were dirt.
Most importantly, there were three holding companies with offshore accounts under Elaine’s name, all of which existed for the Sky Tech Group. A massive amount of fake transactions had been exposed.
Brucille was in dismay when he saw all the information, but at the same time, he also saw how a corrupted businessman built his business empire with various schemes and strategies.
He kept all the evidence in his handphone and said, “Since you’re directly involved in all this, I suggest that you travel as far away as possible. You may return once the case is closed. I’ll get you your money now.”
Elaine didn’t know how Brucille planned to get so much money for her.
Brucille gave Maxwell a call right in front of her.
Maxwell had just had ‘fun’ with his wife, and was sleeping soundly. He was fairly annoyed when he picked up the phone. “Who is it?”
“Mr. Wu, I have good news for you. You may lose a very important business partner, the Chairman of the Lenskin Company…” Brucille said.
After hearing that name, Maxwell quickly got up from his bed and walked to the study room.
Only then did he ask softly, “What did you do to Elaine?”
“Mr. Wu, transfer 20 million yuan to Miss Tse’s account right now. I promise that after getting the money, she will be able to leave safe and sound. I will give you three minutes to think about it.” Brucille continued.
After saying that, Brucille immediately hung up the phone. Elaine was stunned. She looked at him and said, “Do you really think it’s that easy to get 20 million yuan from him?”
Brucille smiled and replied, “Miss Tse, you have underestimated your value. You are worth way more than 20 million in Maxwell’s eyes, because of the companies under you.”
Elaine finally understood why Brucille did not mention her name. Instead, he mentioned the Chairman of the Lenskin Company.
The thought of this made her realize that Brucille was truly a terrifying person. In less than three minutes, 20 million yuan had been transferred into her bank account.
Seeing that she had successfully received the money, Brucille told her, “The deal between us has been completed. Take the money and leave as soon as possible. It’d be best if you leave now. That’s all I can say.”
Elaine knew that the minute Brucille walked out of her house, the Sky Tech Group would crumble, and Maxwell would no longer be a money tree.
Brucille left the villa quietly and returned home. He turned on his laptop and uploaded all the information to the Internet, exposing Maxwell’s corrupted behavior.
After a few hours of proliferating, the news broke out everywhere in the wee hours of morning.
Dozens of reporters crowded over the entrance of the Sky Tech Group office building. They were carrying microphones and cameras of different shapes and sizes, waiting for Maxwell, or other Sky Tech Group executives, to appear.
Although the Sky Tech Group office building security were prepared to handle any emergency situation, they had never encountered something as extreme as this before. The Head of Security even asked foolishly, “Is our company getting listed on the market today? Why are there so many reporters?”
Another security guard replied mercilessly, “Captain, haven’t you heard? Our company is famous now. News about our Chairman gambling and pampering his mistress with our company’s money, and many of his other corruptive behavior have been exposed.”
